Turns out I'm not getting my wisdom teeth removed tomorrow after all, what a mess, my mom and I figured out my insurance actually doesn't cover the procedure in Indiana.. I don't really understand. I understand insurance about as well as I understand all the crap we talk about in my business journalism class. Why did I do that to myself? Poor choice for the last semester of my senior year.

Now I have to be productive this weekend as opposed to lying around on the couch half there from all the crazy drugs I'd be on if I had my wisdom teeth removed. Ho hum, a sailor's bum.

Lately I've been feeling like I really want to be done with college and start the rest of my life, but I don't want to leave all my friends. I think I'm just frustrated because I don't have a car and I'm not really involved in anything this semester. I'm just a bum who is taking 18 credit hours and is always trying to avoid her homework. I'm just a little bit confused about life that's all, and I think by leaving Bloomington I'll be able to gain some clarity. Of course it's possible I wont and then I don't know where I'll be.

I hear two French girls speaking French (go figure) and I really wanted to be like "Are you from France?!" But then I realized how weird that would make me sound, and I don't know how the conversation would go on from there. I just thought that was cool, I never hear people around campus speaking French, of course now that I'm back from Paris I hear it everywhere. It's haunting me. It's saying Bonnie- I'll always be hanging around here in an obscure part of your brain, and I'm like get the hell out if you're not going to be useful, I could use that space for more important things like trying to figure out what the hell we're talking about in my business journalism class.

So I realized I need to be vegetarian before I jump to veganism. I wish I had thought of that before I tried to go straight for it, oh well you live you learn. At least now I have antibiotic for my infection around my wisdom tooth now. It still hurts when I chew, but what am I gonna do? I'm getting all my wisdom teeth out soon! Then no more tooth problems, woo! Too bad I can't eat or drink anything before the surgery...

Slumdog, Skinny Bitch

It took me an extra month, but I decided to make a New Year resolution. I'm going to start a new diet. Mainly because I felt disgusting today. Maybe it was because I decided to reward myself for walking through the snow and ice to school by buying myself two donuts and a coffee. Probably not the best way to start a sleep deprived morning. Also I tried to cook some chicken for lunch and it was the worst chicken I've ever cooked. I was crabby to the max and decided it was time for a change, that's about when I discovered the book Skinny Bitch and ordered it on Amazon... The problem is now I have to wait till Tuesday to read the book and start the diet. I did manage to read the first five pages online so now I guess I'll just start a pre diet diet to kind of warm me up, you know, get me ready to go full steam a head dieting. So from now on no more coffee, soda, cigarettes, or alcohol. I'm pretty sure I shouldn't be having ice cream or sweets like that either, so I'll just do my best to stay away. Simple right? I don't smoke, so that's easy. I can be D.D. this weekend, no problem. It's just the coffee. That is my only weekness. Although in Paris when I hadn't yet grown a taste for esspresso, I would go days with out it. So I know I have it in me! There is faith yet!

Keep sipping on your water with lemon wedges. You can do this.

Snow day, huzzah hurray!

Today is one of those wonderful days when you wake up and realize the next four hours of your schedule is magically freed, and you didn't have to drudge through the snow and ice to figure it out! Today would have been a lot less magical if I didn't check my email when I woke up this morning. It always sucks when something is canceled and you don't realize it until you've already put in all the effort to get where ever you're going. Now I have the apartment to myself, I'm clean and showered and watching Frasier while drinking my coffee. Perfect? I think so. Although I do have to go to my one class that's after 12 p.m. and work later.

I know exactly what to do to make this day even more perfect. I'll cook an awesome lunch for myself since I have all these herbs and parsley from making crab cakes this weekend.

This feels a little to perfect. Something is bound to go wrong here... ha ha no, that's impossible.

Stand by for further updates.

Inauguration filtration awesomenation

Today I am fairly certain I watched CNN for about half the time I was awake. The funny thing is I thought I wasn't going to be able to see the inauguration at all because I had classes during the day which hadn't been canceled, but I actually spent the entirety of my second class watching President Obama being sworn in and giving his inaugural speech. Of course when we were watching the speech in Business Journalism we had to note when he mentioned business and the state of the economy so watching the inauguration could somehow be related to class. After about 4 hours of watching the television- at about 5 min after the parade started I realized I could only watch a car moving at a snail's pace for so long and decided to try to be productive. I don't think I really felt the full magnitude of the awesome moment in history I just witnessed.

Some day I know I'll realize it, and I'll probably wish I had watched that car creep down the street the length of the parade route.
